Solaris

Note that the Solaris agent only includes support for MIB-II tree, which enable you to monitor the network interfaces on the server. Since the agent does not support HOST-MIB tree, Traverse will not be able to find any disks or CPU. Also note that this agent only supports SNMP version 1, so when creating a new device, make sure to select version 1 on the device creation page on the web interface.

Optionally, you can install the net-snmp software from http://www.net-snmp.org or from the Traverse support Web site. If you do this, then you must stop and disable the existing Sun provided agents using the following commands:

cd /etc/init.d

./init.snmpdx stop

./init.dmi stop

If you would like to use the Sun SNMP agent, then you should download and install the latest Solstice Enterprise Agent from http://www.sun.com/software/entagents/. The package includes instructions on how to uninstall the existing agent first.

The following config entries for /etc/snmp/conf/snmpd.conf should be sufficient to get basic information from the agent:
